FEATURES

Direct link to your 'home page'
Your direct link you can send to professionals or friends alike is www.artistaustralia.com?firstnamelastname with no breaks or dots. This way, people can avoid even the front page of Artist Australia to view your works.

Professional looking e-mail address
Your new e-mail address is firstnamelastname@artistaustralia.com and we will automatically direct this to any other e-mail address you nominate. On a press release, it is very important to have a more professional e-mail address than a 'yahoo' or 'hotmail' account.

Biography or Press Release
You are able now to send a link to prospective journalists to see a sample of your work to entice them to your exhibition. Also, you can link them to your press release or biography instead of having to send them an e-mail or hard copy.

Introduction of the artist
You pick the words that captures you as an artist, and have that as your first impression. It can encapsulate your style, or your personailty, or it can simply introduce your work.

Testimonial for your artwork
Members of the public are able to comment directly on your work, and you can post that to your page. Valuable feedback from the public, or attract some 'big name' critics to your site to give feedback.

Noticeboard
You can announce to the world your upcoming solo exhibition, and describe your works in it! Or you can tell about an article written about your works, or let people know about a new art group formed in your area, etc. Anything helpful to the artists listed on the site will remain on the notice board for around 30 days.

Global exposure of images
Anybody, anywhere in the world will be able to see your work. With our efforts at internet marketing, and Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) we will be getting hits from a wide variety of search terms, as well as all the people you send your direct URL to!

Monthly updates of images and information
You can change your images, biography and/or press release once per month. This way your page will not remain static, and can display images relative to an exhibition, or at a request from a buyer.
This restriction does not include any mistakes that we may have made. We will change any mistakes immediately they are pointed out to us, and we usually pick up on them ourselves.

No obligation to sign up OR continue
Once you have signed up and paid your monthly fees, you can stop at any time. You will not have to cancel a credit card, nor call the bank to stop us taking your money! We will simply disable your page until you decide to take it up again, or discontinue it completely. If you take it up again, there are no extra charges, nor a repeat of the set up fees.
If you are being represented by a gallery, and have commission obligations, you can either temporarilty diable your site, or have all contact directed through the gallery itself. You can change the contact details again after your obligations finish.

Easy Upgrade to Full Site
We handle artist sites as a speciality. Our image handling capacity is excellent, and our knowledge of the needs of artists is thorough, as is our knowledge of the relationship between artist and gallery. Mainly, we listen well, and interpret your ideas correctly.
As we have your images on database already, we can eaily upgrade you to a full blown site at relatively cheap price. You will retain a link on the main site, strengthening your sites search engine rating already, and you will have your personal domain with full galleries and articles, etc. As examples Marco Luccio and Debra Luccio.
We can handle everything from domain name registration to interpretation, design and implementation.
